Chapter 4: Heart of Nature
Last time was a little crazy for all of us, we were all just eating and relaxing after rejoining the camp of Digimon only for us all to be attacked by another Digimon and creatures called Dex Beasts. During the attack, Gorillamon had taken both Dodomon and Koromon but we chased after them, Sid and Zubamon even Digivolve into ZubaEagermon, Zubamon's champion form, and defeated Gorillamon they then had taken in the small Koromon too, now I just hope things will get better for us all now.
-Lucy "Lulu" Elizabeth
It was the middle of the day, the afternoon most likely, and everyone; both the Humans and their Digimon were riding in the back of one of the few wagons that belong to the large group of Digimon they were a part of. Lulu was writing in a Lime green journal with her partner Digimon Lalamon sitting next to her. They both look to see the others like Rico on her computer still trying to do as she is always doing while Fanbeemon was eating some of the sweet food she had, Sid watching Zubamon who was missing his white cape, taking care of Koromon, Zack helping Elecmon by getting Dodomon to let go of his tail, Nora and Hawkmon were sitting in the front seats of the wagon to look out for anything dangerous and Echo, Kokuwamon, Ben, Gomamon, Alice, Labramon, and the head of Puppetmon were playing cards well Puppetmon wasn't really playing the game but was just there since he was missing his body and they gave him some cards so he wouldn't feel left out. Everyone but Alice and Labramon had folded as she was giving everyone an unbelievable poker face that they could even tell what she had.
"Ha, jokes on all of you, the highest card I had was the seven of hearts," Alice said to the others playing cards with her.
"What? I had three aces. I could have won." Said Ben.
"How are you so good at this?" Echo asked Alice.
"Oh, I was reading a book that Ben has in his bag called "How to play Poker: Tips, Tricks, and Cheats," I think that was what it was called," Alice said to Echo making Ben have a face of panic.
"What?! Ben, have you been cheating?" Echo said with a bit of annoyance.
"That would make sense since Ben did have three almost winning hands in a row." Said Kokuwamon. What they said was true as Ben has had three good hands since they started playing.
As Echo was arguing with Ben, Lulu felt like she was being watched she turned her head and saw someone in a wagon cart behind them she saw a Digimon that looked to be a large mushroom-like creature with a purple cap with yellow ring patterns and a face on its stalk-like body it also had light velvet boots and gloves that also had a skull and crossbones on the back of the gloves. It was watching her closely; it didn't even care that she knew she saw it looking at her. Before she could say even one thing to the others about the Digimon watching her, Musyamon walked right behind the wagon of the group and got their attention.
"Humans, I wanted to tell you that Thundermon went up ahead and found a fresh stream of water. We're all going to stop there for some water." The samurai Digimon said to the group.
"Thanks for telling us Musyamon, we are all running low on water," Zack said, opening a water canteen he had that had seemed to run out of water. "Oh, right, you said you would tell us about the "Royal Knights?" who are they?" Zack added.
"Oh, I almost forgot about that," Musyamon said to humans before continuing. "The Royal Knights are a group of Thirteen Digimon who are only loyal to The Digimon king, King Drasil. They are known for having the highest ranks of the Digital World and most of them were rarely ever really seen by other Digimon. It is even said that most parts of their origins are unknown to others, but the story of how they are founded is known knowledge to any Digimon, The story goes that the first Royal Knight fought a wicked Digimon that would have ended everything until a Holy Knight Digimon that wore all-white armor had defeated this Digimon when no one else could, they then realized they had too much power so they left behind the sword they had wielded. The sword then was given life and became the first member of the royal knights. King Drasil told this knight to go and find eleven more knights as when there will be twelve then the thirteenth will appear to lead them, and that he did he found the other knights and soon he found the leader of the Royal Knights, the ones who will protect the Digital World."
"Whoa, so they must be powerful, what happened to them?" Said Sid.
"I do not know they have not been seen for some time. Oh before I forget, Zubamon asked Frigimon for a favor and here it is." Musyamon said pulling out Zubamon's cape only was blue instead of white as it always was.
"Sweet, my new look," Zubamon said, putting on his new blue cape. "Now Sid and I have a matching color to wear."
"All you did was change the color of your cape. I wouldn't say it's an all-new look." Said Puppetmon. The wagon came to a stop as they reached the stream of fresh water. Everyone stepped out of the wagons to collect some water, with some Digimon using bottles, canteens, and barrels to hold the water. The humans also got some water as they were filling things up Echo and Ben were still talking about their game of cards.
"Look, I'm sorry I tried to cheat but I want to point out I lost every game," Ben said to Echo.
"Ben, just don't cheat at a game when it is for fun. My father would always scale me for cheating when I was young if I cheated at a fun game. He said once if I ever cheat at a game he would put me in a jail cell." Echo said, making Ben a little confused. "My father is a police officer."
"Oh that's cool, my Dad and most of my family are mechanics at a garage we own," Ben said with a smirk on his face a mile wide. "Hey what about you guys, what are your family's jobs?" Ben said out of curiosity.
"Oh well, both my parents work at a small company my mom is an accountant and my dad is a security guard." Said, Zack chiming in.
"My Dad used to be an air force pilot but after an accident, he couldn't fly anymore so now he trains others how to fly, and my Mom is a part-time substitute teacher," Nora said, feeling gleeful for sharing that.
"That sounds awesome, My Dad works as a store manager at a supermarket, nothing special, but he still works, pretty hard, and my mom is unemployed but she does work on gardening at our home," said Sid, rubbing the back of his head.
"My Mom and Step-Dad work at a hospital. They're both doctors." Said Alice as she was helping a Digimon move a barrel full of water. "Hey Rico, what about your family, what is their job?"
"My family is always doing something with technology like my Dad. He's a programmer for a large company." She said, making a smile on her face. "Good time. What about you Lulu."
"Oh, My mother owns a flower shop, we just sell flowers for any occasion. We even have bouquets ready for people who are running late on a date." Lulu said with a small giggle for that last part.
"Cool, what about your dad?" Alice said catching Lulu off-guard, she then flinched and dropped her water bottle into the stream she reached for it and tried to get it out of the water, but it was too late as she couldn't find it. "Oh, sorry you dropped it."
"It's fine, it may have flown down the stream. I'll just go and follow the stream so I can find my water. Lalamon, can you come with me." Lulu said getting up with her Digimon partner, she was hiding the shocked expression she had just a second before dropping the bottle of water. As they walked away everyone looked a bit confused as if she was trying to hide something.
"She didn't okay," Sid said with a concerned voice.
"Was it something I said?" Alice said, confused.
"Probably," said Echo whale getting a slap on the back of the head from Rico for making that comment. "Ow, what? It was just a joke. But in all seriousness do you think someone should go with her?"
"She looked like she needed some time to herself, I guess she didn't want to talk about her father." Said Nora who was also a little concerned about Lulu.
Meanwhile with Lulu, as she traveled down the stream she felt like she was going down it for a few minutes.
"Lulu are you okay?" Lalamon asked her partner.
"Oh, um I'm okay Lalamon, really," Lulu said to Lalamon, but her partner Digimon knew she was lying. Before she knew it Lalamon was hugging her arm showing sadness to Lulu. "I'm sorry Lalamon, I guess I was a little surprised when Alice asked me about my dad."
"Lulu, what's a dad?" Lalamon asked.
"Wait, you don't know what a dad is?"
"No, I don't know what that is. Most Digimon learn human things in a school but I never really went to one when I was In-Training."
"Well, a dad is someone who raises a child. They normally take care of you, feed you, and they will always... love you." Lulu said making herself leave out some tears as she said that last part as she remembered her father, he was a kind man to her and her mother, he cared for them like a truly amazing father. Until one day when she saw her father do something that changed the lives of both her and her mother forever. Her father never did tell others his job but whatever it was it paid the bills like crazy, one day when Lulu was around the age of eleven she was walking home from school and saw her father when she followed him to see what he was doing she saw him and two other people beating an elderly person down within an inch of the old man's life.
When Lulu told her mother what she saw, her mother lost it and argued with her father for hours, about how he made money for their family. The next thing she knew was that her mother had taken her out of the house and Lulu didn't see her father since that day, until recently back in the human world.
After a little more walking down the stream it had conceded to a river, she finally noticed something in the water it was the water bottle she dropped, she picked it out of the river and did feel thirsty for some water but before she could drink the water in the bottle she heard a childish voice scream out "Mushroom Mash" and before seconds noticed something landed and exploded right in front of her forcing her to fall. They both looked around and noticed the same Digimon who was looking at Lulu earlier.
"Mushroomon?" Lalamon said, surprised at the Digimon.
[NAME: Mushroomon | LEVEL: Rookie | ATTRIBUTE: Virus | TYPE: Vegetation | FAMILY: Wind Guardians - Jungle Troopers - Nature Spirits | INFO: A living mushroom that acts like a bully but has a shy side too.]
"Hey what was that for Mushroomon?!" Lalamon said to the large mushroom Digimon.
"Because she's human! They destroyed our homes, remember!" said Mushroomon. This made Lulu visibly confused when humans destroyed the homes of Digimon? As Lulu was getting back up they heard the footsteps of someone else, It looked to be another Digimon, this one looked like a living flower with two legs made of healthy green roots with an eggshell colored body, both of its arms looked to be lavender colored flowers with a yellow stigma for each flower-like hand and it had red flower petals around its neck with a petal-shape helmet on its head with a little bit of space for its light blue eyes. "Floramon, what are you doing out here?" The Mushroomon said, sounding surprised at the Digimon called Floramon.
[NAME: Floramon | LEVEL: Rookie | ATTRIBUTE: Data | TYPE: Vegetation | FAMILY: Wind Guardians - Jungle Troopers | INFO: A living flower that has powerful pollen. They normally stay in packs of other Plant-like Digimon or other Floramon.]
"Mushroomon, what are you doing?" Said the Floramon sounding angry at the Mushroom Digimon. Floramon walked to Lulu and helped her up. "I'm sorry about what Mushroomon did to you, he acts like that a lot."
"N-NO, I DON'T!" Mushroomon said, sounding in denial "And why are you helping the human, it was humans who attacked the Digital World, and destroyed not only our home but also took Ponchomon away from us all!" He said with anger in his voice. The Mushroom Digimon turned around and when Floramon tried to stop him before she could even react Mushroomon turned around and threw another one of his Mushroom Mash attacks which made a small blast that forced everyone to take a step back and make Lulu drop her glasses. As she reached down to pick them up Mushroomon grabbed them before her and started to run off.
"Hey, You can't have those. Lulu needs those to see, JERK!" Said Lalamon sounding angry at the Mushroomon. Lalamon went to chase Mushroomon only turning back to help Lulu since she couldn't see well without her glasses. Floramon followed too.
As they were running after the Mushroomon something caught the attention of Lulu, a small light. Even with her vision blurred without her glasses, she could still see the glowing light as if she still has her glasses on. She stopped and looked at the light and Lalamon also stopped. Lalamon asked Floramon to keep going after her so-called friend. Both Lalamon and Lulu went to the light and saw a large candle, besides its size, and the fact that around the candle's neck was what looked to be a necklace made of a golden chain and a dark green orb -posable a jewel- it looked completely normal. Before another word was given, the candle looked to have two lines on it that had opened up to reveal two red eyes and it grew two arms made up of its wax body just under the necklace. Lulu stepped back. "Is this a Digimon?" Lulu said confused about the candle-like Digimon.
"I think this is Candlemon," Lalamon said, noticing the bizarre necklace around its neck.
[NAME: Candlemon | LEVEL: Rookie | ATTRIBUTE: Data | TYPE: Fire | FAMILY: Nightmare Soldiers | INFO: A living candle that's flame is its live source. The flame on its head also resembles its prior form.]
"Hey, are you okay?" Lulu asked the candle-like Digimon. Before she was given an answer she heard Mushroomon and Floramon coming their way as Floramon was dragging the Mushroomon.
"C'mon, give the human back her glasses, right now." Said Floramon, holding her flowery hand out so she could give back the glasses. Mushroomon held out the glasses and then slammed them to the ground shattering them into pieces, this left everyone -excluding the Candlemon as they have no idea what is happening- in shock. "Why would you do that?!"
"Like I said humans ruined everything for us all, they took away our homes, friends, and everything when the sky opened, Ponchomon risked everything and saved everyone back in the first place in our old home and could only us. I will never forgive the humans for what they did!" As he finished, Floramon gave him a hard slap on the face that left him shocked by what she did. Floramon was shocked at what she did to her closest friend and after looking at her flower-like hand then back to Mushroomon she tried to apologize to him. "Mushroomon, I'm s-"
Before anything else could even begin to happen, they all heard a loud stomping noise and noticed it came from deeper in the forest. Once they all looked in the direction of the origin of the sound they all noticed that it was getting closer until it showed itself. A large creature made of yellow rock, with its limbs and joints bound by white strings. It has red eyes with long arms that it must use to keep itself up. It also wears a metal mask with a belt that covers the upper half of its face. The rest of its body was also covered in either rope or metal wires to keep it together.
"It's Golemon," Said the Digimon
[NAME: Golemon | LEVEL: Champion | ATTRIBUTE: Virus | TYPE: Rock | FAMILY: Unknown Metal Empire Nature Spirits | INFO: A large monster made up of rocks whose hobbies are beating things smaller than it ... and that's it. It also does not like others for some reason.]
"What is he doing here." Said Floramon.
The sound of ruffling bushes was heard right next to the Golemon and out of them came different forms of these "Dex Beast" As everyone was calling them now. Five DexDorugamon, three Troopmon, and a few Acradiamon and Argomon in their In-Training Levels.
"It's those Dex Beasts! He must be working for the enemy!" Lalamon said to everyone in shock and out of anger towards Golemon, who just works for the enemy.
"That's right, Zeed hired me to find something and as payment, I get to be in his army to take over the Digital World." The Golemon said with his rough and gravelly voice. "Now then how about I get rid of all of you I can't have a bunch of kids running my search for..." The Golemon paused as he then scratched the back of his head. The others were confused as to why he was doing that. "What was it he told me to look for again... A certain form of Data?"
"Did he forget what it was?" Lulu said quietly to the others.
"Doesn't matter, Now to squash you all like bugs." The Goemon said ready for battle.
"WAIT! Can't we all just talk this out and solve any problems you have without peacefully and not resort to violence in such a rash way?" Lulu said to the Golemon. There was total silence for what was around three maybe four seconds, not a sound or any movement, Then the Golemon slammed his fist to the ground making the ground they were all standing on them shake making four out of the five lose their balance since Lalamon normally floats she wasn't affected by the shaking of the ground.
The Dex Beast even started using ranged attacks trying to hit anyone -luckily their aim was simple henchmen level bad- As Floramon was trying to get up one of the DexDorugamon ran up to her and bite down on her left leg forcing her to scream from the pain. Mushroomon noticed that his friend was in trouble so he threw a mushroom yelling out his attack's name Mushroom Mash which blasted the Dex Beast in the face. Floramon using whatever she could do she aimed her arms at the Dex Beast and screamed out an attack name: Rain of Pollen which made strange pollen from her arms that covered the Beast forcing it to let go of her leg and made it unable to move.
Candlemon, not knowing as to what was happening he looked around trying to understand the situation he was in. When he noticed the DexDorugamon he felt something, like as if he saw it before. Lulu then grabbed Digimon before he could get hit and Lalamon fired her attack Seed Blast back at the Dex Beast and Golemon. Everyone hid behind a tree next to the river as it was the only place to hide. The Golemon then ran to them and yelled "Powerful Punch!" hitting the tree most likely trying to knock it down but instead making the tree become loose from the ground and making it fall over.
Lulu, Lalamon, Floramon, Mushroomon, and Candlemon moved out of the way so they wouldn't be crushed by the falling tree. Lulu noticed that the tree was falling into the river and she then thought of an idea. "Get in the river and use the tree as cover, hurry!" Lulu said as everyone followed, jumping into the river, the current of the river pulling both them and the fallen tree that they used for cover and to help stay afloat in the river.
They soon got away from the enemy Digimon. Golemon then stretched his head confused. "They left, I thought they would stay and fight? Wait-- maybe they knew whatever it was I was looking for? Dang, it." Golemon said with a mixture of disappointment and confusion. When he turned around the Argomon In-Training went right in front of him and heard a voice from it.
"Have you found the Data I told you to find?" Said a voice from the Argomon, it was cold, just cold.
"Oh, you must be the original Dex that the other guy mentioned Um, No, but I did find some Digimon and a human."
"I'm not looking for a human or random Digimon, I told you that the Data I'm looking for is in that area-- it took me a long time to find it and I need that Data." Said the voice with silence before saying in a rushed tone like it just thought of what to say on the spot. "Zeed needs that Data."
"Why is Zeed in need of this Data? You keep on saying he needs it but he never mentioned it once and you are the only one of talks about it." Golemon said without hesitation before noticing that the Dex Beast around him we all facing him and all looked savage like they were about to attack him.
"Golemon, don't question your orders, only follow. These "Dex Beast" may follow most of your orders but they will follow my will whenever and wherever they are, I can even make them all attack you if I WISH!" Said the voice of the one now called Dex.
"Yes sir, I'll just follow look for that Data, I also thought that the human I saw may know where I can find that Data," Golemon said as all his Dex Beast went back to normal -as they can be-and They left following the river.
After a few minutes of drifting down the river, Lulu and the Digimon made it to the opposite side of the river and found themselves a cave to hide, they were lost, wounded, wet from the water, and a little scared. Lulu watched the entrance to the cave while Lalamon and Mushroomon checked on Floramon, and Candlemon was just sitting in a corner of the cave thinking to himself.
"I-Is Floramon going to be okay?" Mushroomon said worried about Floramon.
"It seems the DexDourgamon bit deep into her leg, if we can get Labramon, she can heal her. But she is too injured to walk on her own." Lalamon said to everyone.
"How do we get to them? That big ugly Digimon will destroy us in a second the moment he sees us." Mushroomoon said, scared out of his mind. Before he could panic some more. Lalamon slapped him in the face with her tiny hands.
"Keep it together will you, one of us will run back to the camp we just need to follow the river back where we came," Lalamon said only to realize that only one of them would be able to go. "And Mushroomon, I think you should be the one to go." This made everyone confused. "Floramon is hurt, Candlemon wouldn't be hidden very well, and Lulu can't see well since you smashed her glasses and I can't leave her here with you after what you did."
"Bu-But I can't leave Floramon, she's the only friend I have left and-" Mushroomon said with an upset tone only for Floramon to grab one of his hands and looked him in the eyes not say a word but he knew she was telling him he can do it. "Alright, so I just need to follow the river bank to the stream and get back to the others, right?"
"Yes, you should stay out of view of the enemy too?" Lulu said to Mushroomon, even though she can't see him very well she went up to him and told him in a calming tone. "I promise that we will keep Floramon safe, just make sure you make it back safe and sound too alright?"
Mushroomon didn't understand why she was being so nice after what he did, he let out a few tears before leaving to find the way back to the others. As mushroomon left, she thought back to when her life was normal before she met any Digimon.
In the past, when she was growing without her father it was a little rough for her, she once did remember seeing her mother struggle financially and thought of helping her mother whenever she could. Growing up in a flower shop was something she did love doing, growing the flowers and giving them to others in hopes of making them have a nice or wonderful day, and one day the worst happened.
When she was working at the flower shop with her mother, she noticed something bizarre. The sky opened up and monsters came and destroyed everything they saw. When one was in front of the store it tried to charge at her. Her mother moved her out of the way but only for her to get hurt from doing that. Her mother was then hospitalized and had a serious brain injury too, she could do anything on her own for a long time. Then he came to her, it was her father who she hadn't seen in years. She remembers what he said to her.
"Hello, Lulu. It's been a long time huh. Do you remember me, it's me, your father. I- I want us to be a family again-"
"Lulu?"
Her thought was cut off as Lalamon was looking at her with a worried look on her face. Lulu patted her Digimon friend on the head trying to keep her cool and calm appearance.
Out of nowhere, they heard something outside it was too soon for the others to be there. When Lalamon looked she saw Golemon and the Dex Beast following the river, she thought that maybe they would pass by them and not notice us, that was the exact opposite of what happened. One of the Dex Beast started to sniff the air and may have caught their sentence or something, Lalamon was about to panic. She went to Lulu and told her about what was happening.
"They're right outside what do we do?"
"I-I don't know Lalamon, I don't know. Maybe they won't notice us."
"I notice you!" Golemon screamed at the top of his rocky lungs.
The cave was hit by a bolder. It was shaking and they all saw that Golemon was now throwing the Dex Beast to cross the river. Some of them didn't survive the landing and turned into black smoke. Lalamon didn't want Lulu to get hurt so she then looked at Lulu.
"Lulu, I'm going to go out there and lead them away." She said ready to head out until she was stopped by Lulu.
"What?! No!" Lulu said, trying her best to stop her.
"Lulu, you could get hurt and I don't want that to happen," Lalamon said getting past her and running out there.
"LALAMON, NO!" Lulu said running after her, now she remembers the rest of what happened when she saw her dad. She remembered the hospital her mother was in, and she remembered the rest of what her father said
"Hello, Lulu. It's been a long time huh. Do you remember me, it's me, your father. I- I want us to be a family again. I know I did bad- very BAD things to others but after you and your mother left me I was not myself. Please forgive me for what I did and I'll help you and your mother I'll take care of you both I swear." Her father said hugging Lulu who didn't even move from her spot, in her mind this was all her fault she if she had moved her mother wouldn't have been hurt and her father wouldn't be here if she had only saved herself when she could have.
"SO you blame yourself right? About not saving yourself? About your mother getting hurt? Or do you blame yourself for following your father and seeing how he really earned money and then you began to fear him?" said a voice that felt like it slowed down the time.
"Who said- That- That is true, I can't even save myself."
"Why can't you save yourself is it because you don't know how to or you just won't?"
"I-I-I- I Want to save my friend, I don't want to be saved by others anymore!" Said as if time was normal again and she ran up to Lalamon as they exited the cave. "Lalamon, I am not running away I am going to help you too!" A DexDourgamon charged at them just as when Lulu was attacked not too long ago. Lulu grabbed Lalamon to help her.
"[Synchronized Digivolution Unlocked: Activating Digivolution]" Came from Lulu's Digivice has it started to glow, a golden ring with strange writing on it formed in mid-air and once it was done forming around Lulu and Lalamon and the ring was getting smaller that Lalamon and Lulu came into contact and Lalamon turned into green energy that surrounded Lulu like green flames once her whole body was covered in this energy the golden ring lowered to the ground. The energy that surrounded her body began to change her form too making her look bigger.
"Lalamon Digivolve to, Sunflowmon." Said the now Sunflowmon that looked like a green bipedal creature with a slim body, stubby legs with green spikes as feet, long arms with three fingers on each hand, and a pointy tail with flower spikes on it. Its head is yellow with a red, triangular mark on the forehead, a big mouth, yellow petals, and two black eyes. And it looked to have wings made of leaves on its back.
[NAME: Sunflowmon | LEVEL: Champion | ATTRIBUTE: Data | TYPE: Plant | FAMILY: Jungle Trooper | INFO: Talk about real flower power. A large sunflower that uses sunlight as it gets power, in other words, it will hit you with the power of the sun.]
Sunflowmon watched over the cave for a second and back at the enemy Digimon ready to fight she charged at them and said "Smiley Slap!" She then slapped most of the enemy Digimon with a smile on her face. While no one was looking a DexDourgamon made its way inside the cave and saw both Candlemon and Floramon. Candlemon then had remembered something when I saw this Dex Beast. A flash of one charging at him before it was burst into flames in a second. "Destroy all-" Were what escape from his mouth in a toxic sinister tone before he started to glow. Back outside SunFlowmon was taking the Dex Beast down easily as they were too scattered around.
An explosion was heard from the cave that Floramon and Candlemon were hiding in, Sunflowmon looked at the cave and saw someone had walked out of it. They Looked to be humanoid with blond hair and grey skin and wore a pointy hat with a large golden skull on it. It wore an indigo cape with symbols inside it that were also covering its face. It wore brown shoes with crescent moons on the ankles and matching brown gloves, a yellow and red full-bodysuit with "mouths'' that can be opened and closed with zippers, a red vest. It even had a staff with an egg-shaped sun on top of it. "I am Wizardmon and I will destroy all enemies to the Digital World!"
[NAME: Wizardmon| LEVEL: Champion | ATTRIBUTE: Data | TYPE: Wizard | FAMILY: Nightmare Soldiers - Nature Spirits | INFO: A magic-using Digimon that has many amazing tricks up his sleeves. Just never ask what's under its mask as it will do anything to hide it.]
Wizardmon then lifted his staff and fired lighting at one of the Dex Beast taking it out in one hit. Both Sunflowmon and Wizardmon fought together to defeat a few of the Dex Beast. Golemon then with all the force he could manage jumped high into the air landing on the other side of the river and started to attack yelling out "Sulfur Plume!" releasing gas from its mouth that had surrounded them both causing them to yell out from the pain they were in.
Sunflowmon had to focus on the pain so she could hit Golemon. Her petals started to glow from the sunlight and fire a beam of energy "Sunshine Beam!" The attack hit Golemon and had little effect. Golemon laughed off the hit. Golemon then picked up a large rock and threw it at them. "Look out!" Sunflowmon said, pushing Wizardmon out of the way. "How do we beat him?"
Wizardmon looked at the necklace he had around his neck and noticed the green orb. He held it with his left hand. "Sunflowmon, attack him again."
"What- But it won't-"
"Just do it." Sunflowmon then charged up another attack. Wizardmon then raised his right hand releasing some sort of green energy that mixed with Sunflowmon's energy.
"Sunshine Beam!" Sunflowmon then fired another beam of energy but this blast was much stronger than the last as it hit all the Dex Beast and Golemon this time doing serious damage to Golemon destroying his body into tiny pieces.
"Is this- Is this the Data Dex told me to find- I remember this is The Data of the Alpha-" Golemon said with the little strength he had left before turning into a cloud of golden dust that faded away. "Whoa- We did it Wizardmon!"
"Yeah we did, now can you get off of me," Wizardmon said, catching Sunflowmon's attention as she realized that one of her feet was on his leg keeping him down. She then helped him up.
"Are we late?" Said a voice and as they turned around they saw the others who had just shown up. "We are late." Said Zaco as he and Elecmon looked like they were ready to fight too.
After a few minutes, they all made their way back to the camp of wagons. Floramon had her leg healed and Mushroomon wouldn't stop apologizing to Lulu about messing with her and breaking her glasses. It was a good thing that she had a spare. All the humans made a wagon to rest after this whole day, the Digimon chose to eat their food outside the wagon.
"So guys, I'm sorry that I just ran off like that earlier," Lulu said, keeping her head down.
"It's fine, you seemed upset when we asked about your Da-" Echo said before Rico hit him on the arm. "Ow! Hey, what was- oh, right sorry."
"No, I felt like I should tell you guys anyway, I haven't told anyone else about him or what he did. When I was just a kid I saw my dad do some bad things to other people and he told me not to tell my mom, I ended up telling her. They fought and my mom and I left my dad for years, we moved a lot too so I guess just so he wouldn't see us. Then came the day those... Dex Beast attacked. My mom was hospitalized and my dad finally found us, he- he was the one who was saying sorry." As she continued, tears were going down her face, Echo got up to try and tell her she didn't have to continue but Rico stopped him so she could keep going. "He said he wanted us to be a family again, he kept on saying that it was his fault that we left when I was the one who told my mom everything. I then I just ran away, I ran away and the next thing I knew I was in the Digital World I just realized that I hurt by running and leaving him all alone- I- 'm starting to think I am just the worst-" As she finished she was surprised for a second as Alice had walked up to her and hugged her.
"Lulu, we all have done something bad in our lives, none of us are pure-hearted saints. I bullied someone for knowing my whole name. And if we find a way back home then hey just see your dad and tell him everything. It will be okay, I promise." Said Sid as he was helping Lulu emotionally.
Lulu with tears still going down her face said to everyone. "Thank you."
"No problem oh and we almost forgot you should change your clothes since they're all wet sooooo," Nora said as she started to push the boys out and cover any openings of the covered wagon to avoid anyone watching so the girls would have more privacy.
"Okay, we will wait out here," Ben said as everyone was looking at the other Digimon talking about today, Lulu and Lalamon unlocking Digivolution and they defeated an enemy too.
"Hey guys ready to see the new Lulu," Nora said, pulling the blinds to show Lulu with new glasses and she had on a green shirt with light blue shorts. Her hair was also a little different with it being tied into a braid. "Well does she look good?"
"She looks great." the boys said in unison making Lulu smile a little, she then noticed Candlemon.
"Candlemon? Wait, I thought you Digivolve into Wizardmon?" Lulu said, stepping down from the wagon.
"Some Digimon can return to the prior form whenever they wish but that's not the case here. You see I require searching for someone or something..." He said as he was still holding on to his Necklace. "So I thought I could find whatever it is I am searching for if I stay with all of you. Is that alright?"
"Sure I don't see why not," Zack said, welcoming Candlemon to the group and even introducing him to the other Digimon all while something was watching them. It was an Argomon In-training level with a glowing red eye as someone was using it to watch them. The one watching them was looking through a floating monitor screen. They paid their attention to Dodomon for a second before pulling some sort of large weapon and slashed the screen in half. This also affected the Argomon that was also split in half.
"Dex, Is that any way to act when you fail your own mission?" said a voice behind the figure that had slashed the screen. When they turned they saw someone walking into the light. They looked human, but they didn't feel human.
"Master Zeed, how long have you-?"
"Long enough, you're searching for it. The Data of the Alpha is the ultimate power, now why are you, we both know if you had that Data it would destroy you in a second."
"Just as a trophy, nothing more."
"Oh, we will see about that, all in due time." The human said as they walked past the other being and watched another screen this one was all black that had nothing in for a few seconds in. Until a pair of pure red eyes appeared on the screen for a second. "I just can't wait and see what is next."
